This is garnered from my experience having shopped at several Coach Outlet Stores in the past - your mileage may vary. For those who don't know what a coach outlet store is: It is basically a collection of items that did not sell because retailers overstocked their products or are replacing their inventory with new merchandise for the upcoming season. Occasionally you will also find stock which has minor defects or have been returned, but are still salable, but because the product is not showroom quality, is sold at a hefty discount. While there will be lots of bags to choose from, it is most likely that you will not mind the most popular bags or anything that you currently can find online at coach.com. Cute bags will of course be snapped up quickly so the more frequently you shop the better deal you are likely to run into! I love Coach factory outlet stores because they provide consumers an opportunity to save money and find great deals on authentic merchandise that would otherwise be a much more expensive purchase.
